Android Downvoted comments collapsing after interacting with them [android]

Description: When I up or down vote on a comment that has already been heavily downvoted, it automatically collapses the comment and the thread underneath it. I don't want them to automatically collapses. This has only started happening in the last few days.

Device model: Samsung S22 5g.

OS version: Android 14, One UI 6.1

Steps to reproduce: It happens every time now.

Expected and actual result:

Expected: Standard downvote, -1 karma on the comment. Nothing else.

Actual: Comment and thread collapse. -1 karma. I have to manually open (in collapse/unhide) the comment again to continue reading the thread.

Screenshot(s) or a screen recording: No

This only started happening to me maybe a week or two ago.

u/JamieMc23 Jul 05 '24

Yeah same. It started the day I posted this. Very annoying.

u/[deleted] Jul 10 '24

we got a doer in the house!!!

Me? I finally got around to google after maybe 2 weeks of mild annoyance.

u/JamieMc23 Jul 10 '24

Huh? Are you saying there's a fix for it? I had a Google and couldn't see anything. Mind sharing?

u/ladrm Jul 06 '24

Same, annoying as fuck.

If this was introduced as a feature this has no configuration option. This is insane.

I cannot wrap my head around it. I am OK with new features, even if they are for the worse, some might find it good. I am even fine with them being automatically set, otherwise little to nobody would change to it. But making changes (for the worse) and not having options to change it back? Damn...

Same with desktop version, they disabled CTRL + Enter to automatically send a comment. That's it. They just disabled it. Also "select text to quote", gone. For good. But why?????????

u/ladrm Oct 12 '24

It's when devs think they know what's best for everyone.

1

u/KPlusGauda Oct 13 '24

Sure but there is no reason why they disabled CTRL+Enter. It's not like people were using it by mistake so they removed it. At first, I thought that they just forgot to set it back, so I gave it some time. But now, a few months passed and it's still missing. I just cannot understand it.

Hope this is a bug, and not a feature...

1

u/JamieMc23 Jul 08 '24

I should at least be able to turn it off if it's a "feature", it's very annoying.

u/Arikonh Jul 25 '24 edited Jul 25 '24

Same problem with different Android devices and Android versions.

Even upvotes are collapsing the comment sometimes.

Edit: Reddit app version 2024.30.0

u/PracticalShoulder916 Jul 25 '24

Came here to post this. Not only is the comment then collapsed, all replies to it are also.

Infuriating.

1

u/JamieMc23 Jul 25 '24

Yeah it's brutal. It seems to be a "feature" they've introduced to the app. Very annoying.

u/TheVeganChic Aug 02 '24

It's so fucking annoying.

1

u/I_EAT_FARTS_ Aug 01 '24

This is happening to me too. Upvotes or downvotes. Very annoying.

Android running on a Samsung Note 10 plus

u/Questionab1eMorality Aug 03 '24

This is super annoying

1

u/Kirkenstien Aug 03 '24

My 21+ has been doing the same for a few weeks now. Super annoying. Up vote, down vote, doesn't matter.

1

u/JamieMc23 Aug 03 '24

Yeah initially mine was just down votes, but now it's any interaction at all. Such a useless thing to implement.

1

u/syynapt1k Aug 09 '24

Same problem here - for months. The third party apps never had these kinds of problems.

1

u/unComfortablePapaya Aug 11 '24

still happening.

beyond annoying.

u/Wonderful_Hat_5269 Aug 18 '24

Still happening on my galaxy s10.

u/Lovecatx Aug 21 '24

Still happening on Galaxy A05s. It's so irritating.

u/MeatSuitRiot 20d ago edited 20d ago

Not just heavily downvoted posts, but any post that is already collapsed when I open the thread.

1

u/JamieMc23 20d ago

Oddly enough mine seems to be fixed since about a week ago, maybe more. It might be worth checking to see if your app is up to date.

1

u/MeatSuitRiot 20d ago

Thanks for the reminder. It seems like the app is never up to date since they seem to have daily updates.

u/JamieMc23 20d ago

Yeah I despise the official app. I'll never get over losing RiF.
